As the aquaculture industry further develops in marine environments, simultaneously maintaining the health and sustainability of wild populations and fisheries is critical. Such an approach is essential both as a backstop for biodiversity and for food security and a livelihood source for millions of people worldwide. A new study provides recommendations on designing and co-managing aquaculture and ecosystem management to benefit fisheries and conservation objectives. https://bit.ly/4a7jt8S
